and searched across a number of dimensions -- including publisher, Carnegie classification, and FTE counts. It also contains unredacted license agreements, thoughts on pushing back against confidentiality clauses and non-disclosure agreements, guidance on
filing Freedom of Information requests to surface more licensing terms, and insights into how libraries have successfully navigated the Big Deal cancellation process.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
